Thu, 17 Aug 2017 23:05:46 GMTHeadline - "CNN: There will be questions about whether Barcelona attack was 'Copycat' of Charlottesville"

So let me get this straight, CNN is trying to tell us ISIS is taking terrorist queues from American white supremacists and not visa versa? Notice in the following CNN article where they refuse to say Islamic terrorism, but have no problem highlight white supremacists.

“Yet the Trump Presidency seems to have lifted animal spirits and coal. Weekly coal production has increased by 14.5% nationwide over last year with even bigger bumps in West Virginia (19%), Pennsylvania (19.7%) and Wyoming (19.8%). Exports were up 58% during the first quarter from last year. Apparently coal can be marketable if regulators let it be.”

Coal Makes a Comeback
Editorial
Wall Street Journal
August 17, 2017
Not long ago liberals hailed the demise of coal as inevitable while the Obama Administration strangled the industry with regulation. But don’t look now, Tom Steyer, because coal is showing signs of a revival and breathing economic life into West Virginia and other coal states.
Former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy proclaimed in 2015 that coal “is no longer marketable.” She planned to be the lead undertaker. The Obama Administration worked tirelessly to fulfill her mission and may have succeeded had Hillary Clinton become President. “We’re going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of work,” the 2016 Democratic nominee famously promised.
Yet the Trump Presidency seems to have lifted animal spirits and coal. Weekly coal production has increased by 14.5% nationwide over last year with even bigger bumps in West Virginia (19%), Pennsylvania (19.7%) and Wyoming (19.8%). Exports were up 58% during the first quarter from last year. Apparently coal can be marketable if regulators let it be.
…
President Trump has called a cease fire to his predecessor’s “war on coal.” In February he signed a resolution repealing the stream rule under the Congressional Review Act. The Supreme Court stayed the Clean Power Plan in February 2016, and EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt is dismantling the power rule as well as the ash and mercury rules. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has re-opened leases and rescinded the royalty revaluation.
…
This is all horrifying to the climate-change lobby, but they might note that U.S. coal exports are rising to countries that claim climate-change virtue. Exports to France increased 214% during the first quarter of this year amid a nuclear power plant outage. Other European countries like Germany and the U.K. are utilizing U.S. coal to stabilize unreliable renewable sources and make up for electric capacity lost from the shutdown of nuclear plants. First-quarter coal exports were up 94% to Germany and 282% to the U.K. Et tu, Angela Merkel ?
Coking coal used to make steel is also currently a hot commodity, and its price can soar whenever a storm hits Australia and shuts down mines as one did this spring. Metallurgical exports to China rose 357% during the first quarter. As much as Mr. Trump denounces China’s overproduction of steel, U.S. coal miners are benefitting.

Both sides showed up with helmets and bats. Why? If there was violence suspected suspected, why wasn't there a heavier presents of State Police.

...The fact is that the assertion that Seoul is going to be flattened by North Korean artillery is simply false and can easily be proven false.

None of this is to say a war with North Korea would be easy and that it wouldn’t result in widespread destruction in the northern 10% of South Korea, but don’t be fooled. The stories of an Armageddon in South Korea are simply not true. The ROK Air Force and ROK Army are not going to sit on their thumbs and allow Seoul to be pulverized. Neither will American forces. Just like we spent a lot of effort hunting SCUDs in both Gulf wars, the artillery that can shoot at Seoul will be quickly and ruthlessly hunted down and silenced.

Tue, 08 Aug 2017 22:27:25 GMTA Harvard PHD engineer got fired for writing a memo about women in IT and workforce diversity. I'm sure guys like Dave Noel would trumpet such a firing, because he'd view the memo as "sexist". What a sad world we live in when one cannot cogently articulate a viewpoint.

... and in other musings on liberalism... anyone who understands business is now laughing at the lamentations of liberals (see link below) who are scared to death of robots. Ideas have consequences and liberal instance on increasing the minimum wage has unintentionally kicked in a fundamental law of economics. When the minimum wage is in line with the economic value of a role it staves off automation, because the cost of entry into automation is not financially feasible. However, when the gap between wages and automation is dramatically reduced there's little incentive to protect employees. In this particular case, Democrats goal to raise the minimum wage to $15.00/Hr. will force many service businesses to invest in robotics. Unintentionally, the Democrats in the next 5-8 years will wipe out an entire segment jobs, forcing hundreds of thousands of people into the market without the requisite skills to compete for knowledge based opportunities, not to mention making it 10X more difficult for High School students to find employment.

Think that's hyperbole, point me to a Republican equivalent of Maxine Waters! For decades Dems have trotted out some of the most hideous Americans in the history of this country to spew their propaganda, few more caustic and intellectually retarded as Nancy Pelosi. However, with the obvious onset of Dementia and PAC's using Pelosi as special election fodder, it may appear dim bulbs within the Democrat party are actually warming to the notion Pelosi has finally become a liability to their party.

Not surprisingly, the left is conflicted, clueless and upside down on this topic. The problem for American's is the Democrats are not alone in their misunderstanding of the problem. Both Washington and the left are myopically focused on low skill immigrants taking jobs away from Americans and in particular blacks. I would argue we have a far greater problem with significant long term consequences.

Donald Trump is doing a magnificent job bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. along with high paying jobs. However, there's a difference in 21st century manufacturing. A brand new plant will employ a fraction of the workforce compared to one opening 50 years ago. This is primarily due to advanced computing and process efficiencies, where fewer workers are wearing multiple hats and the introduction of robotics. In the late 20th and 21st century our economy is shifting from an industrial workforce to knowledge based. The real problem in immigration now and in the future is not the threat of low wage unskilled labor, but cheap knowledge based workers coming from India, Latin America and Asia. I live it every day being in IT. The number of Indians taking high paying American jobs over the last 10 years is staggering, but nobody wants to talk about it! Thus, the next time idiots like this NY Time reporter wants to talk about "compassion" remind him about how much harder it is for Americans to compete for knowledge based jobs when companies are handing out H1-B Visas by the barrel loads, so they don't have to pay American wages.

He proposes federal money money allotted to health care be turned over to the individual States to fund the program. This is where it could get complicated.

I'd like to see the VA medical abolished and that money go into the general health care budget. Vets getting their services from the health care system at large, My experience with VA health is beyond bad and that seems consistent with everyone I've talked to here in Dallas that's tried to use the VA here.
